From the looks of that engine bay this car is going to be soooo much nicer to work on. Look how clean that is.

Not only is that a sweet intake and a sweet bay to work in, but for those that show their cars - that engine bay would be amazing. You could polish just about everyting and not even get a single cut, bruise or abrasion. I want to get one of those intakes to put on my desk - daaayyyum.

I thiunk the one thing this does is make a set of C5R heads much more "do-able" in a Camaro or a Corvette. One of the items that has been missing ahs been the intake. Now there is one, tha tis ready to go. Now, there may be some issuse with clearance on the Camaro, but it looks like it might fit the Corvette. If so, that would be beastly...
